Question

I got a notification from authenticator that I did not ask for

MarjonL 20

I got a notification from my authenticator that I did not ask for, so I got scared that my account got hacked. When I tried to log in on my microsoft using my gmail account, I could not get in with my password (that I have written down for safety reasons). Is there a way for me to find out what account tried to get a notification so that I can find out what password and account was possible compromised? I'm currently in a state of panic as I do not know if my other accounts are at risk now.

Hi,

Try to sweep through the records you can find at https://mysignins.microsoft.com/

It will help a lot if you remember the time when the notification was received.
